Saudi supertankers reroute around Africa

Six Saudi-flagged supertankers are skipping the Red Sea entirely, rerouting around Africa after changing course in the Gulf of Aden. That detour stretches the journey by thousands of miles and roughly 2-4 weeks. The Houthis out of Yemen have been going after Saudi and Israeli ships, so the threat is serious. Tracking sites caught the tankers moving in formation toward southern Africa instead of chancing the Bab-al-Mandeb. When does this get back to normal? #MiddleEast
